Educational Outcomes

The Equity Scorecard was developed by Dr. Estela Mara Bensimon at the Center for Urban Education, University of Southern California (http://www.usc.edu/dept/education/CUE/).

Each of the four perspectives has an objective.

From this objective we can:-Measure baseline performance -Set an improvement target-Work towards equity in educational outcomes.


Identities for Analysis

Identities for AnalysisThis presentation is limited to identities for which we have quantitative information, including: Race/ethnicity Income level First-generation in college Gender Geographic diversity. Information is not systematically available for other groupsthat are important to inclusive excellence.

• Smaller Cohort sizes lead to more variation in retention rates for PEOPLE participants.

• In four of the last seven years PEOPLE participants had higher retention rates than the overall cohort

• For the 2008 entrance cohort there was a 3.7 percentage point gap in one-year retention rates

• Despite similar retention rates, gaps in graduation rates for PEOPLE program students still exist.

• For the 2003 entrance cohort, the gap in 6-year graduation rate was 12.1 percentage points.

Gap

•Average graduation gap among AAU institutions is 9.6%



•Among new freshmen students who have at least 54 cumulative credits by the end of the 2nd Spring Term, the gap in graduation rates between non-targeted and targeted students narrows from a 17.3 percentage point difference to 3.6 percentage point difference.

•85% of Non-Targeted students meet the 54 credit threshold after the 2nd spring term, while only 61% of Targeted students meet this threshold.

The graduation rate gap narrows among students who complete 54 credits by the end of their 2nd Spring term.


•Targeted minority students are less likely to meet the 54 credit threshold by the end of their second spring term (among new freshmen).
